Florence. Summer 1953. As American Margaret Johnson and her daughter Clara take in the city’s wonders, a fateful gust of wind whisks Clara’s hat into the hands of local dreamer Fabrizio Naccarelli… and it’s amore at first sight. But Clara isn’t quite what she appears, and soon they must all confront a secret that’s been kept in the shadows for far too long.

Summer holidays are upon us and undoubtedly there’s lots to look forward to this summer, but be sure you don’t miss out on these brilliant shows that are set to end their runs this month. The closing of these shows will see some wonderful actors that we not long welcomed to the West End leave us, such as Hayley Atwell (Henrik Ibsen's Rosmersholm) and Dove Cameron (Daniel Evans' The Light in the Piazza). Thankfully, there is still time to see some spectacular casts and fantastic shows before they close their doors for good.

On the face of it, The Light in the Piazza playing at the Royal Festival Hall in London’s Southbank Centre is a glossy Hollywood-style 1950s musical rom-com. It ticks all the boxes; a great set, gorgeously stylish costumes and shiny happy people. Even the lighting reflects the hyper-real light that exists in the Mediterranean, which makes colours pop and everyone and everything look and feel spectacular.
